Jamaica’s unique mixture of natural landscapes means an adventure is around every corner. Well, actually it’s more than just the scenery - it’s filled with entertainment, romance and a famously laid-back attitude. Calypso Rafting combines all of these into one fun-filled, peaceful voyage.
All of this takes place on the White River, near Ochos Rios. Here you can experience true Jamaican culture while relaxing on the river amid incredible jungle views. Special two-person seats are situated on the back of a long wooden raft. You’ll enjoy the scenery while a native paddles you downriver, telling stories of Jamaican history and culture! This is among the most romantic adventures on the island.
Which is great, if the kids stay home. But if they don’t, Calypso has you covered with a family tubing adventure: just lie back in your tube and let the river do the work. Along your journey there are several swimming holes where your family can swim. Get out at the picnic area to enjoy drinks before your journey ends.
